Question

The amount of time it takes for an amount of a specific isotope to decay to half the original amount.

Answer 1

Answer: C. half life

Explanation:-  

Half life is the amount of time taken by a radioactive material to decay to half of its original value.

Radioactive decay process is a type of process in which a less stable nuclei decomposes to a stable nuclei by releasing some radiations or particles like alpha, beta particles or gamma-radiations. The radioactive decay follows first order kinetics.

Half life is represented by $t_{\frac{1}{2}$

$t_{\frac{1}{2}=\frac{0.693}{\lambda}$

$\lambda$ = rate constant

Answer 2

C- Half-Life
